Break free from traditional approaches and explore the limitless possibilities of experimental art! This hands-on 8-week evening course is designed for adults who want to challenge their perceptions of art, build confidence, and develop their own creative voice.

Each week, you'll dive into a new technique, from expressive drawing and mark-making to collage, mixed media, and an exciting range of printmaking methods, including:

🎨 Mono printing – spontaneous and unique prints🎨 Typography printing – incorporating bold letterforms into design🎨 Lino printing – carving and inking for striking graphic results🎨 NEW! Stencil Screen Printing – explore this dynamic technique to create bold, layered designs!

Through playful experimentation and structured workshops, you'll refine your skills and discover what techniques excite you the most. As the course progresses, you'll have the opportunity to focus on your favourite methods and develop individualised outcomes that reflect your artistic style.

Led by an experienced Art & Design Lecturer at West Suffolk College, this course welcomes both beginners and experienced artists looking to expand their creative practice in a fun, supportive environment.

Come unleash your creativity and see where experimentation takes you!
